Mr Ippolito is in Springfield, Illinois

Mr Ippolito is currently in Springfield, IL.  There wasn't much sightseeing today.  We flew from Burbank to Las Vegas, and then Las Vegas to St. Louis, MO.  Springfield was another hour and a half drive northeast.  Since arriving in Springfield we've eaten at Perkin's Family Restaurant, did a little shopping at Target, and did a nighttime driving tour of downtown Springfield to scope out the sites we'd like to see during daylight hours on Monday.

Tomorrow, we visit Lincoln's home in New Salem (about 20 miles west of here), and then perhaps stop by the Lincoln tomb.  Starting tomorrow, I will be posting photos online, so stay tuned to Mr Ippolito's Lincoln pilgrimage on http://www.yukonhistoryblog.com!!
